Educational Outcomes Do Matter.
Manno, Bruno V.
Public Interest, n119 p19-27 Spr 1995
Discusses where outcome-based education (OBE) went wrong and the enormous backlash it created. It is argued that OBE's state mandated outcomes are aimed at creating a new social order which can cause a backlash with parents who do not agree with the direction being taken. A strategy is proposed for escaping the OBE problem. (GR)
